A Mathematical Introduction to Diffusion Models

arXiv:2607. 01693v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: These notes give a proof-oriented introduction to diffusion models from the viewpoint of sampling, tracing a single arc from classical sampling dynamics to modern diffusion samplers, their error analysis, and inference-time control.

Convergence of Diffusion Models Under the Manifold Hypothesis in High-Dimensions

arXiv:2409. 18804v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Models (DDPM) are powerful state-of-the-art methods used to generate synthetic data from high-dimensional data distributions and are widely used for image, audio, and video generation as well as many more applications in science and beyond.

Randomized Midpoint Method for Log-Concave Sampling under Constraints

arXiv:2405. 15379v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In this paper, we study the problem of sampling from log-concave distributions supported on convex and compact sets, with a particular focus on the randomized midpoint discretization of both overdamped and kinetic Langevin diffusions in constrained domains.
